What about "kvm_mmu_extended_role" and a variable name of "ext"?
scache might be interpreted as "shadow cache", whereas I think you
intend "source cache". And it isn't immediately clear (to me) what
"source" refers to.

Would it make sense to shorten this to simply "base"? The usage
looks like it's always deferenced in the context of kvm_mmu_role,
i.e. the "role" part appears to be redundant. And if scache were
renamed we'd end up with e.g. mmu_role.base and mmu_role.ext.
